What's your favorite line and/or scene from Pulp Fiction?

I loved the scene where Travolta & Uma Thurman enter the "Jack Rabbit Slims' Twist Contest"
and I also loved the scene later on where Thurman is revived after she suffers an OD.

That's the one line I remember.

Was listening to the sound track at work today (it's on my phone). Some good tunes there.

It comes after Tarantino gets complimented on his coffee and he goes off on his rant, of course it's good coffee, my wife gets crap coffee, I get the good stuff.

Later, keitel takes a sip of the coffee and just raises the mug and gives an approving look. Not a word.

Not sure why that strikes me as awesome, but it does.

NOOO!
Then why you tryna fuck him like a bitch Brad?
I didn't.
Yes you did. YES YOU DID, Brett. You tried to fuck him.
N-no.
Marsellus Wallace don't like to be fucked by anybody except Mrs. Wallace.

That's the only thing that could have saved that movie.

Too bad they didn't think of it. But they thought of nothing competent.

I loved that one too. Jimmy goes off on Jules for complimenting him for his coffee when they gotta get rid of the blood in the car before Bonnie gets home. The thing that's cool is when The Wolf gives Jimmy a nod regarding the good coffee, Jimmy is in awe of The Wolf because he's doing such an incredible job as a fixer. Not only does he have Jimmy's respect but The Wolf is sincere in his compliment where as it seems like Jules was just kissin' up. This is one of my favorite movies of all time so there are many, many scenes that I love!

I know it probably doesn't reflect well on my character but this interaction had me in hysterics.


Vincent: Whoa!

Jules: What the fuck's happening, man? Ah, shit man!

Vincent: Oh man, I shot Marvin in the face.

Jules: Why the fuck did you do that!

Vincent: Well, I didn't mean to do it, it was an accident!

Jules: Oh man I've seen some crazy ass shit in my time...

Vincent: Chill out, man. I told you it was an accident. You probably went over a bump or something.

Jules: Hey, the car didn't hit no motherfucking bump!

Vincent: Hey, look man, I didn't mean to shoot the son of a bitch. The gun went off. I don't know why.

Jules: Well look at this fucking mess, man. We're on a city street in broad daylight here!

I think the whole movie is about redemption and this scene is that in spades. He could have just left, but he goes back to help a guy that would have otherwise killed him.

First Butch grabs a baseball bat I think, then something else,
Doesn't he finally use a samurai sword to kill the pawn shop owner downstairs?

Just because it's so badass.




Did anyone else want to scream at Bruce Willis's girlfriend to quit crying and get on the motorcycle?! She just stood there whimpering because there wasn't time to tell her to tell her why they had to get the fuck out of there. Get on the motorcycle and get the hell out of there NOW!!

Good old Chuck Berry tune playing, waitresses like Marilyn Monroe and Mamie Van Dorn. Awesome 50s- early 60s dancing. That's my kind of joint!

Honestly don't care for the rest of the movie because I don't really like all of that violence and language.

As they enter the place, a Ricky Nelson impersonator is up on stage singing and playing guitar (He's really good too)

Their waiter is a Buddy Holly impersonator.

Mia decides she wants to enter the Jack Rabbit Slims Twist Contest, and they dance The Twist to Chuck Berry's "You Never Can Tell"

Vincent: Yeah, I'm ready to blow.

IN FACT, WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOIN' IN THE BACK? YOU'RE THE MOTHERFUCKER WHO SHOULD BE ON BRAIN DETAIL! We're fuckin' switchin'! I'm washin' the windows, and you're pickin' up this nigger's skull!



When I first saw Pulp Fiction in the theater, I laughed non-stop through this scene into the next one. Then when Harvey Keitel said, "Well, let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet", I was on the floor again.
